After the new changes to the homepage, the above workflow will not be feasible as the editors have to physically add the new top articles to the homepage. This was done on purpose to prevent the guide articles from covering our homepage and pushing the more relevant articles to the top.

You can schedule a cronjob with https://console.cloud.google.com/cloudscheduler/

The best option seems to be specifying cronjobs to google app engine with a cron.yaml file
